Grande Odyssee sledding race

Mush! Mush! Megève France is one of 10 legs on the big international sled dog race 'La Grande Odyssée Savoie-Mont Blanc'. More than 350 sled dogs stop over at Megève. The 'mushers', or dog sled drivers, ride 900 kilometres with up to 14 Alaskan or Siberian Huskies, climbing over 25,000 metres along the way. Due to the topography in the mountains, the international event is seen as the world's biggest and most difficult race.
